-====== chéngguǒ: 成果 - Achievement, Result, Fruit (of labor) ====== +
-===== Quick Summary ===== +
-  * **Keywords:** 成果, cheng guo, Chinese for achievement, result in Chinese, accomplishment, fruit of labor, success, project outcome, research findings. +
-  * **Summary:** Learn the meaning of **成果 (chéngguǒ)**, a key Chinese term for a tangible achievement or positive result that comes from hard work. This page explains how `成果` is used in business, academic, and personal contexts, differentiating it from the more general word for "result" (`结果`). Discover its cultural importance and see practical examples to understand how to talk about the "fruit of your labor" in Chinese. +
-===== Core Meaning ===== +
-  * **Pinyin (with tone marks):** chéngguǒ +
-  * **Part of Speech:** Noun +
-  * **HSK Level:** HSK 4 +
-  * **Concise Definition:** A tangible result, achievement, or accomplishment, especially one produced through significant effort. +
-  * **In a Nutshell:** Think of `成果` as the "fruit of your labor." It's not just any outcome; it's a positive, substantial result that you can see and point to after putting in work. It's the finished report, the successful product launch, the published research paper, or the beautiful painting. It carries a strong sense of pride and successful completion. +
-===== Character Breakdown ===== +
-  * **成 (chéng):** This character means "to complete," "to become," or "to succeed." It depicts a process reaching a successful conclusion. +
-  * **果 (guǒ):** This character literally means "fruit." It's also used metaphorically to mean "result" or "outcome." The character is a pictogram of a fruit on a tree. +
-  * **Together, 成果 (chéngguǒ)** literally translates to "success fruit" or "completed fruit." This beautiful and intuitive combination captures the essence of reaping the rewards of one's hard work, much like a farmer harvesting fruit after a season of care and effort. +
-===== Cultural Context and Significance ===== +
-  * In Chinese culture, there is a profound respect for diligence, perseverance, and education. The concept of `成果` is central to this value system. It's not enough to simply try hard; the ultimate goal is to produce a tangible, positive outcome that benefits oneself, one's family, or the group. This focus on demonstrable results is visible in the intense academic environment and the project-driven nature of the modern workplace in China. +
-  * **Comparison to "Achievement":** In Western culture, "achievement" can be very personal and abstract, like "overcoming a fear" or "finding happiness." While these are valid, `成果` is almost always more concrete and external. It's the //evidence// of success. For example, you might feel a sense of "achievement" for finishing a marathon, but the `成果` would be the medal, the finishing time, or the improved health metrics you can measure. `成果` is the tangible proof you show others, while the feeling of success is separate. +
-===== Practical Usage in Modern China ===== +
-  * **Academic & Research Contexts:** This is a very common domain for `成果`. It refers to research findings, discoveries, published papers, or a completed thesis. You'll often hear the phrase `研究成果 (yánjiū chéngguǒ)` - "research results/findings." +
-  * **Business & Professional Settings:** In the workplace, `成果` refers to the successful outcome of a project, a positive sales report, a new product, or any measurable success. A manager might ask a team, "这个月我们有什么成果？" (What have we achieved this month?). +
-  * **Personal Projects:** While slightly more formal, it can be used for significant personal accomplishments, like writing a book, mastering a difficult piece of music, or completing a major fitness goal. +
-  * **Connotation & Formality:** `成果` is overwhelmingly positive and implies success. You would never use it to describe a failure or a neutral outcome. It is used in both formal (reports, presentations) and semi-formal (discussions about work or studies) contexts. +

-===== Nuances and Common Mistakes ===== +
-  * **`成果` (chéngguǒ) vs. `结果` (jiéguǒ):** This is the most critical distinction for learners. +
-    * `结果 (jiéguǒ)` is neutral. It simply means "result" or "outcome" and can be good, bad, or indifferent. +
-    * `成果 (chéngguǒ)` is positive. It means "achievement" or "fruit of labor" and implies a successful outcome from effort. +
-    * **Incorrect:** ~~实验的**成果**是失败了。~~ (The **achievement** of the experiment was failure.) +
-    * **Correct:** 实验的**结果**是失败了，所以我们没有**成果**可以报告。 (The **result** of the experiment was a failure, so we have no **achievements** to report.) +
-  * **`成果` (chéngguǒ) vs. `成功` (chénggōng):** +
-    * `成功 (chénggōng)` is "success" (noun) or "to succeed" (verb/adjective). It's the //state// of being successful. +
-    * `成果 (chéngguǒ)` is a noun for the //thing// that proves the success. +
-    * **Example:** 他**成功**了 (He succeeded). 他的**成果**是一本畅销书 (His **achievement** is a best-selling book). +
